We can not grow in grace unless 'We exercise in grace.
, The command is, tt'Gro'W in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Samor
Jesus Chrilt." ,
One of the most essential conditions for gro'Wth is exercise. Thi, is a law both
in the natural and spiritual. Good vigorous exercise in grace will produce a healthy
growth.
A lady once said that she could not take this way of holiness because her hus­band
was in the 'Way. In a short time her husband 'Was removed, but ,still she re­fused
to take the wa.!l' The trouble was that she" herself, was in the, 'Way.
Some of the most fiery conflicts are along the the line of advancement. In fact
it is alwaY8 the case, that 'we make the most rapid ,advancement through the most
severe trials.
No one who has ever gone through a trial trusting .in God has ev,er been sorry
afterward that Itt! had the trial. The 'good obtained more than r8w.arded for the
trial. Why then feel. like complaining while in the trial if we know .that it 'will be
for our good~
We need never fear that the enemy is not conquered 'when 'We have our trust
in God. We can be confident for the Captain of our salvation has planned it so.
lie met the enemy on the plane of humanity and conquered him in all the different
attacks, Why then should 'We fear when 'tve kno'W he is with us'?
We glorify God much more. by being steadfast and faithful in trial than b,ll
leaping and shouting when there is no trial.
When we are brought under the judgments of God's Word let us measure up
instead of getting under condemnation. If our heart is set to obey God we will
never be condemned by the Word even though 'We may be found short sometimes" but
in such instances 'We 'fUust measure up.
Some, one has said that it means much to measure up to God"s Word, but it
means much more, not to measure up.
The Holy Spirit never condemns nor accuses a willing heart. It is his 'Work
to convict and reprove. N either does the Spirit ever discourage anyone in doing
good. That is the work of the enemy.
Therefore" e+!Jery discouragement comes. f'rom the enemy, and should be treated
as the enemy. Every time one feels discouraged" he should resist the devil steadfast
in the faith and certainly the discouragement will flee away.
There are three step' in backsliding-neglect, discouragement, giving up.
If 'We ne'Der become negligent in our spiritual obligations, we 'Will not have muck
trouble with discouragements, and what there may be along this line will easily b,
overcome. J. w. B.
